I can't get around the fact of why would Libby lie? There was no reason to lie since Plame was just your ordinary CIA employee desk jockey. He could have said to anyone that Yeah, Plame works for the CIA and she's the wife of Joe Wilson -- and still Fitzgerald would have no case against Libby.

As I recall, Libby told Fitzgerald/grand jury that he had talked to Russert. Russert denied it in a phone 'interview' w/Fitzgerald sans taking an oath to tell the truth, and Fitzgerald took Russert's uncorroborated word over Libby's assertion under oath. My question: who lied?
